you should be fine if you don't wipe data in recovery or do factory data reset!
you can't really check that bug, it is present in kernels for ICS ROMs
ALL ICS kernels are affected except those built from CM9 source (ROMs like: Asylum ICS, MIUI ROM and the new Paranoidandroid ROM)
If you don't want to do any wiping or flashing through recovery, you can stay for now on LPY ROM, but I suggest that you flash a safe ICS ROM with safe kernel as soon as it becomes available!

HI mix, thanks for the reply...
Bro I don't wanna use any other ROM.... I want to use stock ROM only... Cox I got this phone after allot struggle and I don't wanna give it for even 1 hour to Samsung CC
They won't care of na phone I love it
Can you tell me is there any stock ROM available which is fully safe ? Bug free....

Stock gingerbread is safe, and has good battery life. But if you are already on ICS, i would advise to stick with it for now, until devs figure out the brick bug fix. And if you really want flashing back to gb, search the forum for guide and read carefully. I upgraded to ics and went back to gb twice without any problem using Pc Odin. But that's just me.

Hi ltd.
I, am also thinking to stick with ics
But the doubt entered in my mind
Tell me if the phone get beaked than Samsung will ask me for money ?
My phone is new... I baught it previous month
And flashed with ics before a weak...
And my friend who also flashed ics... he had done factory reset 2 times... And not got a single problem !
What's your opinion? Will phone won't break if it had flashed through PC ics ?
And what about Germany users? Who had officially upgraded it from kies ?
Have they also got the bug ?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

It doesnt matter how you flash Ics. There is still a bug in the kernel which makes wipe/flash operation dangerous, and could potentially damage your eMMC. I said potentially because there are a lot of users that succesfully flash and wipe without problem, but some wasnt so lucky.
If you dont do any wipe/flash with LPY kernel, then you are safe. Dont worry. I used ics german rom just fine, smoother,faster app loading and various improvement over GB. However battery life was hit and miss. The phone couldnt enter deep sleep state.
If you brick your Note, just bring it to the shop. Tell them you left it to charge overnight and found it dead in the morning. They probally give a replacament. This depends on where you live and waranty conditions though.

Ok that's grate..... I had backed up my not
And I don't think so it will get break
But bro you saying I can't flash also ! So now when the Indian ics will available than how I will be able to upgrade with that ? it will also need to upgrade by flashing ?
and what the hell happens when phone gets break ?

Ok,i'm on LPY German + CFroot + done wipe cache twice(using Mobile odin to flash ICS & CFroot from Rocketrom GB v23) & TOTALLY scared to revert back to GB or superbrick my GNote. Here's what EXACTLY i do,happened & my opinions:
1.Download Abyss 4.2 kernel, Prerooted GB XXLC1 from bodivas thread,ODIN1.85,RocketRom GB V23 & put it into single folder (unzip prerooted GB rom-3 files & unzip ODIN1.85).Put Abyss4.2&Rocketrom GB v23 to phone internal memory. ODIN&Pre-rooted stay in my pc(in case Abyss&Rocketrom FAILED & Gnote not brick).
2.Backup & shutdown my GNote.
3.Get into CWM (combo button -Volume up,home & power)
4.Flash Abys4.2 kernel successfully & go to Advanced in CWM - Reboot Recovery & wait till GNote reboot & get into Redpil Recovery.
5. Still in Redpill Recovery - wipe data/factory reset,cache & dalvik - STAY IN REDPIL RECOVERY,DONT REBOOT!!!
6. Still in redpil - flash Rocketrom GB v23 - success & Reboot System.
7. MY GNOTE STUCKED IN ROCKETROM BOOT ANIMATION & SCREEN ARE BLANK/BLACK & NO RESPONSE!!!!Try reflash Rocketrom & still same FAILED result!!
Okay,here's what i do next:
1.Take out battery - put my Gnote to Download Mode (Combon buttons - Volume Down,Home & Power).
2. Start Odin1.85 & I just followed instructions in Bodivas thread using Prerooted ROM that i download before...unzip & have 3 files.
3. Connect GNote(still in Download Mode) to my laptop (while odin still running) & green in odin (detect & added).
4. Put 3 files to PDA,Modem & CSC.
5. DOuble check....again&again (dont repartition!!!)
6. START.
7. Gnote Autoreboot & continue installation in Gnote....and reboot GNote again.
8. Gingerbread started & successfully reach the settings..the one "Touch Logo to Settings"......fuhh!!!!! WHAT A RELIEF!!!!!
My opinions:
1. If you on Stock German LPY & STILL NO CF ROOT - the easiest,safe & simplest way is FLASH with ODIN using Prerooted GB (Full-wipe prefered) rom.
2. If you on Stock German LPY + CFRoot & no wipe at all OR Stock Grm LPY + CF ROOT + Wipe Cache - the SAFEST is using Abyss4.2 kernel,Custom GB rom & if failed...use ODIN. Abyss4.2 kernel is important if u failed..u're stil in GB Kernel & can use ODIN (GNOte still can get into CWM or DOnwload Mode).
Anyway,thats myexperience & opinions...maybe dont apply to your GNote....just want to share to all.

i need some help.
i'm currently on open germany stock ics (LPY). i've read, that this kernel has some serious problems. so i was wondering how to get back to GB if i would like to. can i use non wipe stock GB rom and just flash it via pc odin? or do i need to use full wipe rom? but i'm affraid to use a full wipe one because of the LPY problems. or do i need to use some completly different scenario? i would be very greatful if someone could clearify that for me. thank you!

When my SGN was in ICS Criskelo v3 I did the following steps suggested by this forum
1. download AbyssNote 4.2 kernel and place it on your internal/external SD Card
Also download the GB Rom you want to install and put it on your SD card.
2. reboot to CWMR and do a backup of your current system
3. after your backup is done, stay in Recovery
4. go to install a zip from SD card --> select AbyssNote 4.2 zip and flash it
5. go back to CWMR's root menu --> advanced --> reboot recovery
6. you'll find yourself in AbyssNote's Recovery
7. factory reset --> wipe cache --> wipe dalvik
9. flash the GB Rom of your choice
10. reboot and let the Rom settle for a couple of minutes
It worked for my SGN. I am not sure if it will work with your ICS rom.

No problem.
I'm in a similar situation: stock LPY, rooted with temp CWM. The thing is that I did a full wipe with stock recovery a few days ago. How could I know if my eMMc is damaged? being a flashaholic in rehab, i don't want to risk my note... is it safe for me to flash, say, singapore LC2 with pc Odin??

[Q] [HELP] bricked phone? how to recover?

hello, I installed [ROM][ICS] KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v2.0 and it worked, then I did a nandroid backup and after I installed the S3 optional MOD.
The phone worked fine for some days, then I wanted to delete the S3 MOD so I did a nandroid restore from the previous backup, something went wrong during restoring. So I tried to flash the ROM again from SDcard, I did a dalvik cache wipe and a cache wipe and after I tried to reflash the kingdroid rom from recovery, it flashed the kernel and hung during MODEM flashing.
Now when I turn on the phone it hangs on galaxy note logo.
How can I solve this situation? Go back to GB? How? PC ODIN?
Thanks
Please read the thread before doing anything. NEVER EVER RESTORE A NANDROID BACKUP FROM ICS KERNELS. I think you just did that and now you are a part of Superbrick family. I think just read threads about how to revive your bricked note and follow the procedure or Samsung service is the only way out
Check if your phone enters download mode ( power+home+volume down ). If so - you're not bricked and can flash GB stock rom with ODIN.

It enters in download mode after warning me about the danger of flashign a custom os. So I canm proceed to flash a stock GB rom? N7000XILB1 ?
As you said your phone hangs on Samsung screen. When this thing happened first time with me i was too scared.
Dont panic. So you can go to download/Recovery mode. Flash a stok GB ROM. It worked for me. Dont worry about warning.
See Dr. Ketan's Thread for step by step guide. Carefully follow his instructions.
Best of luck..

Do I need to replace the pit first? I think the kingdroid rom replaced the pit and created new different partitions, so if I put the stock rom won't it need the original pit? I'm lost on that.
..To be honest I go back and forth from GB to ICS to CM9 without any problems (maybe I'm one of the lucky guy and maybe at certain point I will brick as well!)...BUT what I do (when from ICS I move to GB) is to pass ALWAYS through AbyssNote Kernel 4.2.
So hoping you have a GB previous nandroid backup AND you can still enter in recovery modified mode, I would suggest the following steps
1. enter in recovery mode
2. flash the Abyss Kernel by choosing the zip
3. WITHOUT reboot the phone > go Advanced
4. re-boot recovery
5. once in Abyss kernel> factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache
6. restore
7. choose GB backup
8. start restoring
Before learning about Abyss, I had very similar soft-brick like your one....but I easly managed it with the above method
Hope it helps
so, it was not super bricked. I flashed the pit and then Gb without any problem. now it's working.
Good deal, just make sure you read the stickies next time and don't restore nandroid backups in CWM (Use abyss kernel).
There's plenty of safe kernels now that have disabled the brick bug as a workaround though. If you want stock ICS, flash Franco or Speedmod kernels. If you want a CM9 rom, there's plenty of variations. There's also an aokp rom.

[Q] Rocket Rom ICS v7, home key issues

Firstly I apologize for posting in Q&A's, due to the 10 post restriction I was unable to post in the rocket rom thread in android development and Q&A's seemed the second most ideal place.
After a day of horror, I tried merely flashing Abyss Kernel 4.2 but I ended up somehow in a soft brick accessing the recovery and download modes only. After ages I decided to try my luck installing Rocket rom v7 and it thankfully worked and my phone is up and running.
However, I have faced a couple of issues with it, of which the major one is the lack of response when hitting the home (center key) on my international version of the galaxy note. It doesn't work whatsoever, I've also noticed that the lock screen has disappeared too, so when I put the phone to sleep and wake it I get taken to the page I closed on rather than the lock screen. The latter I have fixed by using widgetlocker, although I am still oblivious as to how to fix the home key losing it's function.
Any advice etc? (especially if it's kept in layman terms, and nothing drastic... I despise flashing!!)
Moreover I was just wondering is there a set of instructions one could follow to return to a stock rom on the galaxy note via CWM?
Kind regards and thanks for your time

on what rom did you flash v7 ?
iam currently running it no issues at all, everything works maybe you 'll have to do a clean install just flash abyss kernel full wipe with it and reflash the rocketrom v7 using it dont not reboot until you flash the ROM since you flash a GB kernel on an ICS system....... wont boot just softbrick. watch it!
sounds like the system files a corrupt somehow and btw if case you changed kernel let us know too....

Ah yes sorry wasn't clearn.
I was firstly on ICS 4.0.3 stock rom XXLPY, I kept getting nagged about the kernel instability so I went and tried to flash Abyss kernel 4.2 (somehow stuffed it up ended up soft bricked). So I then flashed Rocket Rom v5 (after properly flashing Abyss kernel) via CWM. I think follow the steps to upgrade to v7.
Tbh I really do not want to mess with flashing and ODIN again >.> have become paranoid.

Grr couldn't find the post edit button, but tbh I do think it's a setting issue or so I am hoping I did play around with the rocket rom tweakbox and I imagine that may have been the cause of this issue or so I am hoping

Wouldn't that just give me 2 copies of rocket rom and cause issues? Or will it install missing files?
So I should just install zip from SD and that's all?
Ok I am redownloading now and going to give it a shot.
Moreover, I would love for any advice on how I can return to stock rom... any advice would be most welcome. I'd prefer only to use CWM.
Or if there is perhaps another fix the issue above? Any comments would be most appreciated!
First of all yes you can install zip from as and select v7 (no it won't harm it will overwrite all files Yes, I understand want have duplicates unless they are from another rom but again full wipe would have removed them from before so you are ok.
Well idunno about CWM stock rom I prefer you use either pc odin or mobile odin (recommended) just charge the phone to 100% and install mobile odin set you stick firmware on sdcard and select open file in mobile odin then in case you want the root keep options as they are and select wiping option both. In case you don't want root deselect the object superuser options and still check the willing one
About home key issue might be a script issue one of hardware files is messed up so I can't tell for sure which but mostly the files are at system/usr/

Thanks for all your help REVERSiN, just to update you.
I tried re-installing v7 rocketrom and flashing however still faced the same issue of the home key etc. So I kept a stock rom in my external SD went to CWM recovery and did a full wipe, delvik cache wipe and cache wipe tried installing the stock rom however CWM had issues opening it and aborted. So I installed rocketrom v7 again and voila it works perfectly now and seems brilliant.
I think I still want to return to stock eventually, but I refuse to use Odin, I tried using odin twice and both times it froze the first on factorycs (although my phone wasn't bricked) and the second time yesterday on cache so yah I have had terrible luck with ODIN and I refuse to use it,.
Nonetheless if there is way to flash stock rom using CWM would be epic. However, until I am 100% sure on how to do it I'll be sticking to rocketrom.
Thanks again for all your help and time!

[Q] Flashing procedure

Hello,
I'm new at flashing but I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note, which already had Stock ICS on it.
Android Version: 4.0.3
Baseband: N7000XXLPT
Kernel: 3.0.15-N7000XXLPY-CL474507
Got brickbug confirmed that I am running a dangerous eMMC chip firmware. I bought this Note from eBay and I'm guessing the previous owner did a reset. It is still working and I had no trouble with it, so I guess I got lucky.
Since I would like to return to a safer kernel and install Paranoid Android I read myself into some threads but would like someone to review what I've gatherd:
Flash save kernel for ICS, for example speedmod kernel with PC Odin.
Device should reboot into ICS with new kernel.
Flash Gingerbread stock ROM for my country (germany) for example this one:
N7000XXKJ4 ------ 2.3.5 2011 october-------- N7000OXAKJ4 ------------------Germany (Debitel)
Device should restart wirh Gingerbread and an old Gingerbread kernel(?)
Root and install CWM using Dr. Ketans guide and batch file.
Follow instructions to install Paranoid Android v0.4 from CWM
I have some questions for this as well:
Speedmod kernel flashes CWM with it. Does that mean it flashes the kernel and the recovery partion, too? As I understood, the CWM works from inside the initramfs, which I thought got flashed with the kernel on the /system partion (or maybe the /boot partion) but not on the /recovery.
Does CWM disapear, when I flash another ROM?
I am pretty sure, that I am running a free (= open) Version of ICS on the phone. When I install a Stock Gingerbread ROM with a Carrier afterwards (like above the Debitel company), do I have to expect weired stuff?
I am running Win 7 64bit, and I would run Odin v1.85 with admin rights. Kies ist installed. Odin found the device, too.
Thanks in advance,
gador
Speedmod Kernel will install Kernel, CWM and Root - And is flashable via odin or mobile odin.
CWM will disappear if you flash a stock ROM via ODIN, If you flash a custom ROM through CWM you will keep CWM (may change depending on kernel from the ROM)
If you flash a branded ROM via odin, You will probably get a lot of carrier branded bloatware on the device, But if you are sim unlocked, you wont get any weird issues like network unlock codes and so on.

So I guess, I can go ahead and they're no fatal flaws in my procedure?
(And flashing stock ROMS overrides /recovery as well?)
Check the videos in ky sig once
Just to be safe
Erm, All ROMs are different so double check in the OP but you wont lose CWM if you switch between custom ROMs, Only a full firmware flash via ODIN will replace recovery. However there are many variations of CWM, All however do the same job
the instructions above are correct, But seem to be a more complicated way of doing it, It says to flash a safe ICS kernel, THEN flash GB ROM in ODIN ??? That makes no sense.
Anyway, What i would do is, Revert to GB via ODIN, Flash SpeedMod kernel (for GB not ICS), Load all the files on to your SD card, Boot into recovery, Do a full wipe, Along with cache and dalvik cache, Then install PA + Gapps + any other mods !

would it then be necessary at all to install the SpeedMod kernel? I included it above to make sure, the kernel is safe, but when the Gingerbread Stock ROM overrides the kernel, do I have to flash the kernel afterwards?
I suggest you stay stock and dont do any factory reset or data wipe.
Then READ and read a LOT of the topics here.
All these suggestions of flashing this and that comes with a risk. And it does not mean that if it works for others will work the same way for you.

I'd say no. I mean, as I understand it, you're flashing the device in download mode. There is no need for a root user.
So, against my inner "good angel", who told me to wait for a new official firmware release, I went ahead and flashed away.
It all worked and here is what I did:
Flashed the Gingerbread Stock firmware from above with PC Odin, according to the guide in the second post of the Stock Firmware thread.
Restarted and got lots of force close issues.
Flashed the Gingerbread Kernel SpeedMod from here ("speedmod-kernel-n7000-k2-12-Odin.tar")
Rebooted, continued to have force close issues.
Rebooted into Recovery (which is now CWM, due to Kernel update)
Wiped cache, dalvik cache and did a factory reset
Rebooted into a fully working Gingerbread OS
Placed PA v0.4 and GApps onto my SD Card (from here)
Rebooted into CWM Recovery
Applied PA v0.4 from SD-Card
Applied GApps from SD-Card
Wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache and did a factory reset
Rebooted into a workind Paranoid Android OS.
Although the SpeedMod Kernel got overridden by PA, I still have CWM Recovery.
Did you root first? and did you get the yellow triangle through flashing with PC Odin?
PS
I'm still dead scared about flashing a ROM after messing up my last gnote, never ever had a problem with my desire...it's shook my confidence tbh :-(

Well, the SpeedMod Kernel not only gave me CWM, but also root. According to PA Thread Install instructions, you would need to root your device prior to installing PA.
Yes, after flashing the SpeedMod Kernel, I got the yellow triangle, but since I bought this phone on eBay, without any bill to confirm warranty, I didn't really care about it.
I did not get a yellow triangle after flashing the official Stock ROM!
So I would hazzard to guess that this would not void warrany. (Also, in Download Mode, there was the little text saying: "Custom Binary: No" after flashing the Stock Gingerbread ROM)
So, if I were concerned about warrany, I would have a second look at Dr. Ketans guide, which describes the CWM+Root procedure without increasing the binary counter (at least I think so).
This way, you could get root and CWM after flashing to Stock Gingerbread.
I just had the problem, that Gingerbread wouldn't allow me to go into the Settings Tab to activate Debbuging, which you will need for Dr. Ketans method. (All processes were getting force closed)
If it is possible to wipe the caches and factory reset the phone with stock recovery, I think it would work. It should look like this then:
Flashed the Gingerbread Stock firmware from above with PC Odin, according to the guide in the second post of the Stock Firmware thread.
Restart to Recovery. Wipe Dalvik Cache, Cache and do a factory reset (You just flashed Gingerbread Stock, which should have given you a safer kernel)
Restart
Activate USB Debugging and untrusted sources.
Follow Dr. Ketans Guide on how to Root+ get CWM
Continue from step 8 above.
Since I consider myself a complete noob to the flashing business, someone should propably confirm, what I've just written. I wanted to be on the safe side and therefore flashed a known safe kernel again over Gingerbread, just to be sure (and to get root+CWM)
Hope that helped.
Well mine didn't :-(
I'm now cursing after my planned upgrade failed :-( I'm stuck at the yellow triangle boot screen wondering what to do
My sequence was
a) Unpack SGN, and it upgraded to ICS
b) read about all the dire warnings on ICS - and curse!
c) figure out how to flash speedmod and get root via the temp CWM - and I was pretty happy about this for a few days..
d) battery life seemed poor - so I wondered if the Abyss kernel would help
e) Went into Recovery - which appeared to be CWM (volume & on/off to navigate) and flashed the Abyss kernel and performed a wipe (assured that my SGN was safe with speedmod)
f) Now stuck at the yellow triangle boot screen - wondering what to do?
My recovery seems to be the touch screen version now - when I can get into it.
Suggestions please?
(My old nexus One wasn't this tricky!)

Wll I reflashed speedmod with Odin - and at least it looks like its booting!... anxious minutes later.... well I/m back. I don't know what i did wrong - but |I don't want to repeat that in a hurry.
I'll wait for CM9 to come out with an approved kernel before messing further!

Were you rooted on the base Android ROM? Was it GB? Whatever it was, first flash a standard GB using PC ODIN and then root it and then try a new ROM. You can get stock GB ROMs here
Cheers!

Hi i flashed with PC odin after downloading stock rom from the link you gave, then i flashed Paranoid again, and later Gapps hybrid, but everytime i still stuck on the same oot animation.
I have even tried, full wipe means not only factory reset and cache wipe, but also format /data, format /system and and format /cache. but still no luck, stuck again.
I even have tried then darkside cache wipe 1st time, but not solved, then i also used darkside super wipe, but still no luck.
My phone is rooted, is there any other solution or anything that i am forgetting to do?

I am having a similar problem, but instead of getting stuck on boot screen my mobile goes back in CWM. I am trying to install LiquidSmooth 3.2 and am currently on Criskelo 5.1....when I tried to go from Criskelo 5.1 to 8, the phone got stuck on the boot screen. (Used Abyss Kernel to flash)

Flash stock GingerBread rom from PC odin and root it . Else you can flash pre rooted GB roms like Checkrom, rocketrom etc etc etc from the whichever ICS rom you are currenntly on .This is how I flash Gingerbread rom from EMMC bug infected ICS rom , flash abyss kernel 3.9 and the reboot recovery into abyss kernel 3.9 and then wipe data , cache and dalvik cache and then flash CheckRom Revo HD V6 and reboot your phone.
Once your phone is successfully running GB rom with proper root and clockworkmod recovery , go to clockworkmod recovery and wipe data , cache , dalvik cache and flash paranoid android directly ( dont flash abyss kernel or any other kernel , GB rom with CF root kernel or whichever kernel the pre-rooted GB roms like checkrom and rocketrom come with ) , and finally after flashing wipe data , cache and dalvik cache . You will boot paranoid android properly .
I dont want you to brick your phone , so explained the whole process from gingerbread rom installation

Really Thank You for your detailed Reply, But as you said I wastrying this all from STOCK GB Rom only which i rooted, But in paranoid one of senier member told me that, as i used darkside scripts and which are not made for Note, So I have screwed my partitions, and may be i will need to repartition with four filed STOCK ROM. because now the problem is even critical, when i flash, it stucks at SAmsung Note GT-N7000.
So really need to solve this issue 1st, so starting new thread now, for flashing Stock Rom with odin for repartition.

Thanx Friend,
I have flashed b4 from stock ICS kernal to Anidroid ROM, but now that is not the real problem, now i am on stock GB Rom, which i have installed via Odin, Kindly check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1783625 this thread which i have just started, i hope you will understand my problem by looking to this thread, also as i am on GB kernal right now, without rooted, so still i dont need to afraid of EMMC brick bug (I assume it is problem with stock ICS kernals.).
And I had screwed my galaxy bote and had hard bricked my phone , it was gone mate , my phone had almost seem its last days , but i did save it and gave it a new life . Well here is what happened ( again in detail ) - I was KingDroid V2 rom , even when i knew all the ics roms at that time had emmc brick bug , I was fool enough to do a data wipe :crying: , and **** !!!! my phone did boot any rom , i was not even able to flash any rom , not even stock unrooted samsung roms via pc odin . I couldnt even get my phone into recovery mode !!!!!! The only thing that was working on my phone was the download mode !! Thank god !!!!:fingers-crossed: . I tried to re-partition using the original 16GB pit file( as i have 16GB Galaxy note N7000 ) but it was in vain. And then I read some post in XDA developers which mentioned how to RE-ARRANGE the partition.
[ Well I think you don't know what happens when you do a data wipe with emmc bug infected kernel ???? Right ? well here goes an explaination fro that , (i love explaining things to others :cyclops In simple words when you do a data wipe on an EMMC bug infected kernel a part of your internal SD card gets infected , I mean it becomes non-functional , it doesn't respond to read /write commands issued over that sector of internal SD ]
so out of my 16GB internal memory , memory sectors from 1049MB to 2200MB had got corrupted( found it by trial and error method ) , i couldn't use them anymore , so using the adb from the android platform tools , I edited the partitions and shifted the partition corresponding to 1049 MB to 2200MB, and then flashed abyss note kernel and then checkrom revo HD :fingers-crossed: . Viola my phone booted , I had got over the hard brick , but my internal storage had reduced to 10 Gb instead of 11 Gb due to unresponsive sectors in internal memory !!!
Next i did a reset of the flash counter and removed the yellow triangle and flashed the stock gingerbread rom (Indian version , where I am from ) via pc odin and it got stucj at FactoryFS stage , as expected !!!! . Next I handed it to Samsung service center and just told them that i was trying to update to ICS via kies and it got stuck . After few days they replaced my phone's motherboard for free :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
My friend i think your prob started while flashing paranoid rom u said that after flashing rom u made a full wipe... so i think u lost your root... just an idea
İf u can find a prerooted gb rom or u can root your gb rom u can flash paranoid rom
